Poor indoor air quality can significantly impact employee health and productivity. Inadequate ventilation and high levels of pollutants often cause respiratory issues such as eye, nose, and throat irritation, fatigue, and long-term conditions like asthma.
If left unaddressed, poor air quality can lower workplace morale, increase absenteeism, and raise healthcare costs. Cleaner air boosts employee focus, reduces fatigue, and creates a healthier, more productive work environment.
PRN Hygiene’s comprehensive IAQ assessments identify hazards and improve ventilation systems, ensuring compliance with UK standards. By enhancing air quality, you protect your employees, reduce energy costs, and improve operational efficiency.
